New York-based extreme death metal band, Suffocation, shot a for the track "Cataclysmic Purification" on May 31 with director David Brodsky (Arsis, God Forbid, Kataklysm). When asked about the new track and their soon to be released sixth full-length album “Blood Oath,” Suffocation bassist Derek Boyer said, "Cataclysmic Purification audibly portrays a calamitous future approaching. With this song and the rest of the album I think we've maintained the musical integrity of the band while still having comprehendible brutality. Blood Oath combines straight forward crushing movements with unsuspecting twists that will certainly entertain everyone from the avid Suffocation listener to the first time innocent bystanders."
Suffocation recently uploaded “Cataclysmic Purification” to their MySpace page (www.myspace.com/suffocation). Blood Oath is set for release on July 14, and will mark Suffocation's 20th anniversary as a band. Suffocation entered the studio on January 31 with Joe Cincotta (who worked on the band's last two releases) to begin recording Blood Oath. The follow-up to 2006's self-titled record was mixed by Zack Ohren (All Shall Perish, Decrepit Birth).
